Have you worked with a Recruitment firm before? While we hope you had a positive experience, far too often a process that should make your life easier ends up making the hiring process seem even more frustrating. Why is that?
The internet has changed the industry. Our clients need talent now more than ever before, but the internet has changed the game. Recruiters now rely on huge data bases of candidates, often shared by hundreds of other recruiters, and more often than not has already been sent to your inmail more than once and perhaps many times over the years. We consider ourselves a boutique recruitment firm. We are small, lean, and geared to work with individual clients for individual needs. We do something that most headhunters simply don't do anymore. WE HEADHUNT!!!
That's right. When you give us a position that needs to be filled the last thing we do is enter keywords into some database filled with candidates that seem to always be looking. We actually pinpoint untapped talent, reach out to them personally, and recruit them for your individual need. That's how we are able to fill our positions not only with the most qualified candidates, but often with individuals who are either local to your area or have a legitimate and personal reason to join both your team and your community. We don't deal with job lookers, we find career seekers!

"Joe has a way to make the process seamless and in many ways, even enjoyable. His candidates are always qualified and all the pre-screening is done before we even have the resume. He's able to find candidates that I have never seen and it amazes me how he does this. I've been in HR for over 30 years and thought I knew everyone in the industry, at least in our local area. Joe proves me wrong on every search."
~Cathy, HR Director
"I get a call from this recruiter about a position in my local area. Unlike most recruiter calls I get, it was anything but generic. He was clear about the opportunity and open to having a discussion on my future needs. He never over sold the position. I even laughed with him that he wasn't like any headhunter I had talk too. He took it as a compliment. I was placed by Joe in 2007 with a mid sized food manufacturing company. I just celebrated my ten year anniversary and will be retiring with this company. I'm glad Joe called me that day."
~David, Engineering Manager
"When I have a position that needs filled I know that Joe will give me qualified and motivated candidates. It's not enough to just see resumes of already hard to find candidates. I rely on Joe to prescreen, set up the interviews, negotiate the salary, and make the transition from candidate to employee as seamless and easy as possible. I consider Joe a partner and have for over 6 years."
~Garret, Plant Manager
"I don't want to work with a headhunter that tries to oversell their candidates. I want one that listens and gives us the people that fits our needs. With Joe I know I will get that."
Dennis, HR Manager
